Frequently asked questions

Can the dates be in any order?

Yes — the tool uses the absolute difference, so order doesn't matter.

How many working days between two dates?

Roughly 5/7 of the total days minus holidays — for exact business-day counts, subtract weekends and your local public holidays from the day total shown.
